Recording Ultra HD and HD video with HyperDeck
HyperDeck models that support Ultra HD video record compressed Ultra HD using Apple
ProRes, plus Avid DNxHR on HyperDeck Studio 12G and HyperDeck Studio Mini. All HyperDeck
models can record HD video using ProRes and DNxHD 220x codecs. HyperDeck Studio
models that record on SSDs can also record uncompressed HD.

displays the image on the control panel LCD.
If you want to change the codec, you can choose from a variety of codecs using the
